Chapter 506: Attacking the Heart
If it was usual, if a mere account office dared to be so rude to himself, Zheng Hongkui would have kicked it over, and then asked him to roll up the cover and leave, and when he was in a bad mood, he first asked someone to beat him and couldn't take care of himself before sweeping the floor out.

However, after being relegated back to the old house, Zheng Hongkui's mentality has changed a lot, he has lost his former spirit, he is cautious in everything, he did not get angry immediately, but carefully looked at this account room, as if he wanted to see what his true face was. Besides, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and a bookkeeper with no status dares to break into the study at night, and there must be something strange in it.
He looked at Wang Qinian, and Wang Qinian looked at him without fear, without any panic, nervousness, fear and other emotions on his face.
After a long time, Zheng Hongkui sat back in his chair and said in a muffled voice: "I have long seen that you are different from other account offices, but I never thought that you were a meticulous worker." Say, who sent you, what are your intentions to infiltrate the Zheng family, and what clear path can you show me? ā
Wang Qinian replied expressionlessly: "The Qiongzhou battalion army is pressing the border, and it is about to attack by land and water in the near future, and Zhongzuo Suocheng and Anping Town will not escape this catastrophe. If the fourth master wants to seek a way to survive, abandoning the darkness and turning to the light is the only way......"
Zheng Hongkui seemed to have heard the most ridiculous words in the world, and looked up to the sky and laughed: "Let's not talk about whether the Qiongzhou camp has the courage to do so, even if they dare to come to Fujian to brush the tiger's beard, the Zheng family is now in full swing, and the red hair and Liu Xiang are all wiped out, will they be afraid of the small Qiongzhou camp?" Just a dozen boats, not enough for my eldest brother to stuff his teeth, actually have the face to turn against me? ā
Wang Qinian sneered: "First of all, remind the fourth master, the Zheng family is in full swing, what does it have to do with you today?" ā
"......" Zheng Hongkui was speechless for a while, although the other party's words were suspected of being strong, but it was a fact that he was excluded from the inner circle of the Zheng family, and it could not be said that the other party said the wrong thing.
"Besides, the fourth master's understanding of the Qiongzhou camp may be wrong. Although I am not often in the army, I also know the general situation: in the battle of Liuluo Bay, the Qiongzhou battalion only sent its smallest ship to participate in the battle, in order not to arouse Zheng Zhilong's suspicion. But such a small boat turned the tide in the naval battle and avoided the defeat of the Zheng family......"
Zheng Hongkui wanted to refute, but he couldn't open his mouth. He was present in this battle, and the death of the second brother Zheng Zhihu was the turning point of the whole battle, if it were not for the Qiongzhou battalion to join the battlefield, the Zheng family fleet with frustrated morale was very likely to be defeated.
āā¦ā¦ And this kind of small boat that can defeat the red hair, in Qiongzhou Camp Sailor is just a trick role, the real main force is a big plywood ship similar to the main warship of the red hair......" Wang Qinian showed a strange smile, "The fourth master of this ship has also seen it, it is the plywood boat that attacked the port of Zhongzuo!" ā
With a sound of "bah", Zheng Hongkui took the case, and pointed at the other party in shock and anger: "If it is really a good thing done by your Qiongzhou battalion, and you still blame the red hair?" ā
Thinking that this incident was one of the reasons why he was snubbed by his eldest brother, Zheng Hongkui was angry and shouted outside the door: "Come on, drag this guy out for me......"
"The fourth master is angry, it's not too late to call someone when I finish speaking."
Zheng Hongkui laughed angrily, glared at him and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, just wait for you to finish, and then chop you up and feed the fish to relieve the hatred in my heart." After knowing who the opponent was, he couldn't contain the anger in his heart, knowing that the person standing in front of him was not the culprit, but just an insignificant pawn, but he still couldn't help but vent the anger in his heart.
Wang Qinian continued unhurriedly, "The fourth master has also seen the combat power of this kind of big plywood ship, and it will only be above the red hair. There are less than 10 plywood boats in the red hair, and the Zheng family surrounds them with ten or a hundred times the number of troops, and they can't win in battle, let alone the Qiongzhou battalion with more numbers and better guns? ā
Hearing this, Zheng Hongkui calmed down a little, what Wang Qinian said was not unreasonable. The Zheng family is so hard to fight the red hair, and they may not be able to win by fighting the Qiongzhou battalion.
"Now the Qiongzhou Battalion has added another sharp weapon, a big ship of 2,000 materials, which can hit 50 catties of flowering bombs, no matter how many boats the Zheng family has, it is just to send them to death."
Zheng Hongkui was taken aback, a big ship of 2,000 materials and a 50-pound flowering bomb? What a behemoth this has to be.
Wang Qinian finally expressed his intention: "The Qiongzhou Battalion Water Division and the Lu Division are already in Fujian, and they must complete their efforts in one battle, so that the Zheng family will disappear from now on, and the arrow is ready to be sent." My general thinks that the fourth master is a rare talent, and Zheng Zhilong snubbed and excluded the fourth master, which is really stupid. As long as the fourth master is willing to cooperate with the actions of the Qiongzhou battalion, the general promises not only to save the life of the fourth master, but also to send you a great fortune. ā
Zheng Hongkui resisted the urge to kill the other party with a knife, and said in a deep voice: "No matter how big brother there is, the Zheng family is also in his hands step by step to get to today, no matter how wronged I am, I am also a member of the Zheng family, how can I be a villain who eats inside and outside in order to make a living?" He didn't realize it himself, and after listening to Wang Qinian's introduction, his confidence in the Zheng family's victory over the Qiongzhou camp had been shaken.
Wang Qinian seemed to have been mentally prepared for his words, and he was not surprised at all when he heard this, but just silently flashed to the side. At this time, the door was pushed open, and several people wearing flying fish suits and carrying embroidered spring knives around their waists walked in, and the first person smiled and bowed: "Fourth Master Zheng, contemptible brocade clothes guard Zhou Guoxin, come uninvited late at night, don't be surprised." ā
Zheng Hongkui's eyes narrowed, his hands clenched his fists tightly behind his back, and he was vigilant in his heart, why did Jinyiwei also get involved? It seems that he is in the same group as Wang Qinian, does the Qiongzhou battalion have such a great ability that even Jinyiwei can drive it?
He said coldly: "The Zheng family and Jinyiwei have always been well water and do not interfere with river water, so when they come to the cold house today, do you have any advice?" ā
Zhou Guoxin said with a smile: "I don't dare to give advice, but I happened to know a few interesting things about Zheng Siye, so I came to share them with Siye, it's better to be happy alone than to be happy!" ā
Zheng Hongkui had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he didn't say anything.
Zhou Guoxin took out a small note, coughed a few times, and read it according to the script: "Since the first year of Chongzhen, Hongkui, the fourth son of the Zheng family, has been entrusted by his eldest son Zhilong to and fro in Dongying, smuggling raw silk, cotton cloth, ironware and other goods, and getting money without counting, privately withholding, filling his own pockets, and hiding silver in Pingdo, with a total of more than hundreds of thousands of taels ......"
Zheng Hongkui was stunned as if he had been struck by lightning, no one knew about such a confidential matter except for himself and a few cronies, how did Jin Yiwei know? Although hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are just a drop in the bucket for the wealthy Zheng Zhilong, this kind of behavior of enriching his own pockets is known to the eldest brother, and there will be no good fruit to eat.
